Coach Talk

Heathens
Hey, we admire the confidence, Heathens. Deploying not one, not two, but SIX starters with zero points while still earning a win... that's playing with fire. Try that type of flashy, show-off stuff next week against Hot Fire and see what happens.
Babajide's Best Team
Hey, it's possible that Babajide's Best Team would be a better GM in real football than in fantasy. Seeing just 14 targets as a group in Week 12, their four starting pass-catchers (three WR, one TE) apparently spent the majority of their games blocking downfield and running decoy routes.
